&nbsp;&nbsp; When one edits a *.tar file, this plugin will handle displaying a<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; contents page.&nbsp;&nbsp;Select a file to edit by moving the cursor atop<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; the desired file, then hit the&nbsp;<span class="Special">&lt;return&gt;</span>&nbsp;key.&nbsp;&nbsp;After editing, one may<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; also write to the file.&nbsp;&nbsp;Currently, one may not make a new file in<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; tar archives via the plugin.<br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a class="Constant" href="pi_tar.html#:Vimuntar" name=":Vimuntar">:Vimuntar</a><br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<span class="PreProc">VIMUNTAR</span><br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; :Vimuntar&nbsp;<span class="Special">[vimhome]</span><br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This command copies, if necessary, the tarball to the .vim or vimfiles<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;directory using the first writable directory in the&nbsp;<a class="Identifier" href="options.html#'runtimepath'">'runtimepath'</a><br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;when no&nbsp;<span class="Special">[vimhome]</span>&nbsp;is specified.&nbsp;&nbsp;Otherwise, the&nbsp;<span class="Special">[vimhome]</span>&nbsp;argument<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;allows the user to specify that directory, instead.<br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The copy is done using the command in&nbsp;<a class="Constant" href="pi_tar.html#g:tar_copycmd" name="g:tar_copycmd">g:tar_copycmd</a>&nbsp;, which is<br>
<div class="helpExample">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;cp&nbsp;&nbsp; for cygwin, unix, macunix<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The extraction is done with the command specified with<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a class="Constant" href="pi_tar.html#g:tar_extractcmd" name="g:tar_extractcmd">g:tar_extractcmd</a>&nbsp;, which by default is<br>
<div class="helpExample">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&quot;tar -xf&quot;</div>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a class="Constant" href="pi_tar.html#:TarDiff" name=":TarDiff">:TarDiff</a><br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<span class="PreProc">DIFFERENCING SUPPORT</span><br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; :TarDiff&nbsp;<span class="Special">[filename]</span><br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This command will attempt to show the differences between the tarball<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;version of a file and the associated file on the system.&nbsp;&nbsp;In order to<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;find that file on the system, the script uses the path associated with<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the file mentioned in the tarball.&nbsp;&nbsp;If the current directory is not<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;correct for that path, :TarDiff will fail to find the associated file.<br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If the&nbsp;<span class="Special">[filename]</span>&nbsp;is given, that that filename (and path) will be used<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;to specify the associated file.<br>
<br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<span class="PreProc">PREVENTING LOADING</span><br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; If for some reason you do not wish to use vim to examine tar'd files,<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; you may put the following two variables into your &lt;.vimrc&gt; to prevent<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; the tar plugin from loading:<br>
<br>
<div class="helpExample">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;let g:loaded_tarPlugin= 1<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;let g:loaded_tar&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;= 1</div>
